Abstract

Large sums of silver flowed across Scandinavia and the Baltic in the late Viking Age – but were the proceeds shared evenly? This paper explores the regional distribution of wealth in Scandinavia and the Baltic in AD 1000, with a particular focus on Norway’s position on the Viking Age economic ladder. // Hilisviikingiaegses Skandinaavias ja Läänemere idakaldal liikusid suured hõbedakogused, kuid kas tulu jagunes kõikjal võrdselt? See artikkel keskendub rikkuse jagunemisele Skandinaavias ja Läänemere idakaldal 1000. aasta paiku, keskendudes eelkõige Norra kohale viikingiaegse majanduse edetabelis.
